What causes lower body pain?

If women have improper sexual life or do not pay attention to hygiene, it is easy for them to experience pain in their lower body, a little itching, and more frequent urination. This is most likely caused by cervical erosion, vaginitis and other diseases. It is best for people to understand what causes cervical pain and then seek treatment as soon as possible.

15% of women suffer from varying degrees of chronic vulvar pain. Some women have their first attack, usually after an infection (such as a fungal infection), gynecological surgery, or childbirth. But most cases are not related to a single incident or external injury. Chronic vulvodynia is more common among women in their twenties and thirties. Symptoms include burning, itching, swelling, and stinging in the vagina and sometimes even pain around the rectum. People with vulvodynia usually experience pain during intercourse, but sometimes it can occur in completely unexpected circumstances.

According to statistics from the National Vulvodynia Association, these patients generally have seen more than seven doctors before finally discovering the problem before receiving the correct diagnosis and treatment. But because so little research has been done on vulvodynia, many family physicians and gynecologists don't know how to test for the condition, let alone how to treat it.

Objectively speaking, our current understanding of chronic vulvodynia is still very limited. Therefore, gynecology has not yet established routine examination methods for chronic vulvodynia. Sometimes, inflammation of the vulva can be observed with the naked eye, but there are many problems that cannot be diagnosed by observing changes in the vulvar skin. Doctors generally use the method of elimination to analyze the causes of vulvar pain, such as whether the patient has a sexually transmitted disease, a skin disease, etc.

Because the cause of vulvodynia is still unclear, doctors who are desperate to help their patients but are at a loss for what to do may prescribe a wide range of medications, from antibiotics to antifungals to steroids.

Experts remind that the treatment of chronic vulvar pain is a matter that varies from person to person. If you have symptoms of pain, be sure to ask a professional doctor to make a diagnosis, find out the cause of the pain, and then develop a reasonable treatment plan.
